Yay! Future Assassin’s Creed games to allow for a choice of gender

[Cristiano]

The new Assassin's Creed game, Odyssey, has same sex romance options in the game:

Assassin’s Creed Odyssey will have same-sex romance options

This is the first game in the series that lets you choose a romantic partner (other games you've had them, but they were part of the main storyline).

Bioware games like Mass Effect and Dragon Age have long offered you freedom of choose on your romantic partners as well.

Diversity in games is a good thing - there are all kinds of stories to tell, plus it doesn't hurt that it makes bigots whine on the internet.

Terrible Idea: Offer a game mechanic advantage if you allow the game to randomly assign your gender and skin tone.

Wasn't there a game in the past year or two that did that and people freaked the fuck out? I forget which one it was.

Rust. They even assigned dick size. Why is the developer of Rust assigning every male avatar a different penis size? (NSFW)

It was a pretty impressive freakout.

You see, while every player in Rust has the same capabilities — the same opportunities if you will — they no longer have the same appearance. Every avatar is being randomly reskinned, slowly but surely, in a way that is permanently locked to their Steam ID.

And Newman isn't stopping there. Soon, meaning once the model is finished, an avatar's sex will be randomized as well.

Fuck. That.

And fuck that tyrant Newman. Another designer who thinks he doesn't need to listen to the players. He can keep HIS game. And any other game he has or will develop. I won't buy them.

This guy makes the Empyrion devs look like saints.
